Given a "run configuration" in Eclipse, I want to print out the associated shell command that would be used to run it.

For example: Right now, in Eclipse, if I click "play" it will run:

mvn assembly:directory -Dmaven.test.skip=true

I don't see that command, I just know that's what the IDE must run, at some point. However, some of the other run configurations are far more complex with long classpaths and virtual machine options and, frankly, sometimes I have no idea what the equivalent shell command would be (particularly when it comes to Flex).

There must be some way to access the shell command that would be associated with a "Run Configuration" in Eclipse/Flex Builder. This information must be available, which leads me to believe someone has written a plugin to display it. Or maybe there's already an option built into Eclipse for accessing this.

So is there a way to, essentially, convert an Eclipse run configuration into a shell command?

(for context only: I'm asking because I'm writing a bash script that automates everything I do, during development--from populating the Database all the way to opening Firefox and clearing the cache before running the web app. So every command I run from the IDE needs to exist in the script. Some are tricky to figure out.)
